The third film has been in talks even before Jeepers Creepers 2 was released back in 2003. In 2006, the movie was “announced” and was tentatively called Jeepers Creepers 3: The Creeper Walks Among Us. MGM had originally planned to release the movie direct to DVD, but was unable to find proper financing. The movie’s script was written by director Victor Salva, with the new title Jeepers Creepers 3: Cathedral, with Gina Philips returning as Trish Jenner from the first film. For nine more years, the film faced many false starts and setbacks, with Victor Salva saying “the film has came close many times to going before the cameras, and I hope someone sees the wisdom in shooting this”.

Officially on September 11, 2015, the movie got the green light to start filming from Myriad Pictures, and was to begin filming in early 2016. However, before filming could begin in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canadian talent agencies sent out an alert to warn others about Victor Salva’s criminal past, and then the casting calls were removed, which halted the production. However, producer Stan Spry assured a fan on Twitter that the movie was not cancelled.

On the special edition Blu-Ray release of Jeepers Creepers 2, Victor Salva stated that he has written a new script for Jeepers Creepers 3 set between the days of Jeepers Creepers and Jeepers Creepers 2, where the Creeper terrorizes a farming community. Plans have changed yet again, as Gina Philips is set to reprise her role as Trish in a cameo. The film’s plot will in fact be set in between the first two films in the year 2001, although the original Cathedral storyline had the film take place 23 years after the first two films. Actor Stan Shaw, who plays a Sheriff in this film, confirmed to a fan on Twitter that the Cathedral storyline was scrapped as that material was more than 12 years old.

In January 2017, it was confirmed the film was back in pre-production and that filming would begin in February 2017 in Louisiana, instead of Canada as originally planned. Principal photography finally began on February 15, 2017 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. As of April 18, 2017, filming has been completed.[1]

Development

Saw 3D was intended to be the final film in the Saw franchise,[10] with the film being split into two parts. However, Lionsgate Films only allowed the filmmakers to make one more film after Saw VIunder-performed at the box office. According to Saw 3D writers Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton, because of the change, “the big reveal of Dr. Gordon was a bit underserved … Perhaps creating more questions than answers. There were several ideas we never quite figured out. But I don’t want to say what they were, because you never know what might happen in the future.”[11]

In February 2016, it was reported that Josh Stolberg and Pete Goldfinger wrote the script.[4] It became known in July 2016 that Michael and Peter Spierig directed the film.[5][12] Mark Burg and Oren Koules, who produced all of the previous entries in the Saw series, will also reprise their roles as producers.[3] Composer Charlie Clouser described the film as a “reinvention” of the franchise, opining that “the Spierig brothers can deliver a fresh take on the material that will establish a new story line and new characters that can carry the saga into the future.”[13] The directors further detailed their approach as being “Saw for 2017″. As Michael Spierig explained, “It’s perhaps not quite as vicious and more fun. But it’s still full of gore, that’s for sure. It’s got a really great mystery, and there’s very interesting twists.”[8]

Filming

In October 2016, production was confirmed to have commenced under the working title of Saw: Legacy.[14] The film was shot in November 2016, before entering post-production by that January.[3] On March 2, 2017, Bloody Disgusting broke the first plot details and a full actor list, confirming that Tobin Bell will be returning in the role of Jigsaw to some degree.[7] In June 2017, the Motion Picture Association of America listed the film under the official title of Jigsaw, with the film rated R, for “sequences of grisly bloody violence and torture, and for language”.[6]

Music

Charlie Clouser, who provided the score for all previous entries in the Saw series, will return to score Jigsaw. Clouser will reimagine the music of the Saw franchise, following the six year hiatus between Saw 3D and Jigsaw. Clouser stated, “this will be an opportunity for me to re-imagine how I approach the score, and I’ll be trying a more stark, bold, and stripped-down approach that will be more in line with the strong vision that the Spierig brothers are bringing to the table.”[13]

Development

Development of a sequel to Blade Runner first began in 1999. Stuart Hazeldine had written a sequel to the film based on The Edge of Human, titled Blade Runner Down; however, the project was shelved due to issues concerning the rights to the novel.[3] Ridley Scott considered developing a sequel, tentatively titled Metropolis, and again announced his interest in developing the project while attending the San Diego Comic Con.[3][4]Eagle Eye co-writer Travis Wright worked with producer Bud Yorkin for several years on the project. His colleague John Glenn, who left the project by 2008, stated the script would explore the nature of the off-world colonies as well as what happens to the Tyrell Corporation in the wake of its founder’s death.[5]

In June 2009, The New York Times reported that Scott, along with his brother Tony Scott, were working on a Blade Runner prequel, set in 2019. The prequel, Purefold, was planned as a series of 5–10 minute shorts, aimed first at the web and then perhaps television. Due to rights issues the proposed series was not to be linked too closely to the characters or events of the 1982 film.[6] On February 7, 2010, it was announced that production on Purefold had ceased, due to funding problems.[7] On March 4, 2011, io9 reported that Yorkin was developing a new Blade Runner film.[8] It was also reported that month that director Christopher Nolan was the desired choice to make the film.[9]

It was announced on August 18, 2011, that Scott was to be at the helm of a new installment, with filming to begin no earlier than 2013. Indications from producer Andrew A. Kosove were that Ford was unlikely to be involved in the project.[10][11]Scott later said that the film was “liable to be a sequel” but without the previous cast, and that he was close to finding a writer that “might be able to help [him] deliver”.[12] On February 6, 2012, Kosove denied that any casting considerations had been made in response to buzz that Ford might reprise his role, saying, “It is absolutely, patently false that there has been any discussion about Harrison Ford being in Blade Runner. To be clear, what we are trying to do with Ridley now is go through the painstaking process of trying to break the back of the story … The casting of the movie could not be further from our minds at this moment.”[13] When Scott was asked about the possibility of a sequel in October 2012, he said, “It’s not a rumor—it’s happening. With Harrison Ford? I don’t know yet. Is he too old? Well, he was a Nexus-6 so we don’t know how long he can live. And that’s all I’m going to say at this stage.”[14]

Scott said in November 2014 that he would no longer direct the film and would only produce. Scott also revealed that filming would begin sometime in late 2014 or 2015, and that Ford’s character will only appear in “the third act” of the sequel.[15] On February 26, 2015, the sequel was officially confirmed, with Arrival director Denis Villeneuve hired to direct the film. Ford was confirmed to return as Deckard, as was original writer Hampton Fancher, with the film expected to enter production in mid-2016.[16]

Pre-production

On April 16, 2015, Ryan Gosling entered negotiations for a role.[17] Gosling confirmed his casting in November 2015, citing the involvement of Villeneuve and Deakins as factors for his decision to join the film.[18] On May 20, Roger Deakins was hired as director of photography.[19] Principal photography was set to begin in July, with Warner Bros. distributing the film domestically and Columbia Pictures handling international release.[20] An official release date of January 12, 2018, was announced on February 18, 2016.[21] When interviewed at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival, Villeneuve disclosed that the plot would include the ambiguity of whether or not Deckard is a human or a replicant.[22]

On March 31, 2016, Robin Wright entered final negotiations for a role in the film,[23] and on April 2, Dave Bautista posted a picture of himself with an origami unicorn, hinting at a role in the film.[24] Bautista and Wright were confirmed to be joining the cast on April 4, and a filming start date of July was established.[25] In late April 2016, the film’s release date was moved up to October 6, 2017,[26] as well as Ana de Armas and Sylvia Hoeks being added to the cast.[27][28] Carla Juriwas cast in May 2016.[29] In June, Mackenzie Davis and Barkhad Abdi were cast,[30][31] with David Dastmalchian, Hiam Abbass and Lennie James joining in July.[32][33] Jared Leto was added to the cast in August.[34] In March 2017, Edward James Olmos confirmed he was in the film in a sequence playing original character Gaff.[35]

In an interview, Villeneuve briefly discussed the film, revealing it is set a few decades after the original. It will again take place in Los Angeles, and the Earth’s atmosphere will be different. “The climate has gone berserk — the ocean, the rain, the snow is all toxic”. It was revealed that Scott would be executive producer.[36]

Filming

Principal photography began in July 2016 and, as of September 2016, was filming in Budapest, Hungary.[37][38] On August 25, 2016, a construction worker was killed while dismantling one of the film’s sets at Origo Studios.[39] Warner Bros.revealed in early October 2016 that the film would be titled Blade Runner 2049.[40] Shooting ended in November 2016 in Hungary.[41]

Post-production

The editing of Blade Runner 2049 is taking place in Los Angeles and commenced in December 2016. The director and producers have aimed the film to be R-rated.[41]

Music

Icelandic composer Jóhann Jóhannsson, who has previously worked with Villeneuve on Prisoners, Sicario and Arrival, will be composing the score to the sequel.[42] According to Jóhannsson, the decision was made a long time ago. He praised composer Vangelis for his previous work, and that it will be “an enormous challenge of mythical proportion”.[43]

Pre-production

CBS Films acquired the rights to Flynn’s book series in 2008. The New York Times bestseller, Consent to Kill, was intended to be the first film in a proposed series.[2]Consent to Kill was scheduled to be produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Nick Wechsler; the screenplay was written by Jonathan Lemkin. The studio’s last few films have performed poorly causing them to delay the production of this film. Antoine Fuqua was originally attached to direct[3] with several names being rumored to play Mitch Rapp, including Gerard Butler, Colin Farrell and Matthew Fox.[4] However, being a prequel novel, American Assassin provided the opportunity to start at the very beginning of the character, Rapp’s, career.[5]

Jeffrey Nachmanoff replaced Ed Zwick as director on February 12, 2012.[6] At the time, Zwick was also writing the script with Marshall Herskovtiz but a more recent draft was written by Mike Finch in October 2012.[7] A further director and screenwriter change took place with Michael Cuesta and Stephen Schiff, respectively, now on board as of March 2016.[8]

Production needed to start by April 30, 2016 or the rights to the film would be reverted to the Vince Flynn Estate.[citation needed]

Casting

On October 10, 2012, Chris Hemsworth was believed to have been offered $10 million to play the lead, Mitch Rapp.[7] However, a month later, it was revealed Hemsworth turned down the role due to scheduling issues.[9] On May 10, 2016, after being “courted for months”,[10] Dylan O’Brien was cast in the lead role with the “idea that O’Brien’s Mitch Rapp is college aged, and the hope is the actor grows as the series progresses.”[11]

Bruce Willis was in talks to star as Stan Hurley in September 2012[12] but Michael Keaton was cast as Rapp’s mentor on March 9, 2016.[8] Taylor Kitsch joined the cast on August 18, 2016 as the “villainous operative.”[13]

On September 7, 2016, Shiva Negar and Sanaa Lathan joined the cast. Negar in a key role as a Turkish agent who teams up with Rapp and Hurley,[14] and Lathan as CIA Deputy Director Irene Kennedy, who is to the Flynn novels what M is to James Bond. In the books, Kennedy is white, but “Lathan shone above a large number of actresses who tested for the job as an actress who could grow in the role as her character rises from running strike teams to the heights of power.”[15]

Filming

Principal photography took place between the months of September and December 2016 in London, Rome, and Phuket,[16][17] with additional filming in Valletta[18] and Birmingham
